This pack is meant to be used to understand the different kind of bird beaks birds have. You will set up 5 stations. Each station will include a plate or tray of food to pick up.

Chopsticks, spoons, tweezers, toothpicks, and clothespins work best. I have included a recording sheet for learners to use as they experience each station. There is one recording sheet wi

I hope you find this a helpful resource for practicing handwriting! **If there is a sentence that you would LIKE to have on

I created this for math stations. My learners walked around the room with a baggie of the measurement tools listed on the sheet. They can measure items they find and compare the differences in measurement based on what non-standard tool they use.

I created this mini 120's chart so each learner could keep it at their desk. In the past I have taped them to their desks, other years I have just had them put them in their supply boxes. Very convenient for them to pull out when needed. This comes 4 to a sheet.

I created these resources to go along with our historical figures unit. The unit we teach involves exploring the historical figures, having parents come in and share their personal histories to model. If you don't have as much parent involvement at your school, you could invite other teachers or friends in to share their personal histories. They take notes about the historical figures and the parents. After each presentation (with both historical figures and parents) we ask what connection
